ART NEWSLETTER MAY 2018
ART Meeting. Monday May 21 at
6:30 at Hardesty Regional Library.
Program: A rare treat! A
silversmith!
Rachel Rose is an amazing
young talent. She grew up in the Kendal-Whittier area, attended the Tulsa
School for the Arts and also studied with Bill Derrevere. Her silversmithing
work is both traditional and unconventional. Preferring natural textures with a
muted finish her artisan jewelry line reflects the natural world from which she
draws inspiration. She creates jewelry with complex layers difficult or
impossible to achieve with modern mass-production methods. Each unique piece is
formed by hand and a true work of art. Google her name and look at dillonrose.net to see some impressive pieces.

The Oklahoma Sculpting Society of Tulsa will be participating in Plein Air Tulsa! this year. They will give $100 for a sculpting prize. I am hoping to match that so it will encourage more sculptors to compete. They will be judged separate from all other mediums.
We still need sponsors to help cover the cost of the reception, extras for swag bags, printing and gift for artists. Sponsors will have their names listed on our publication and all publicity items.
FACEBOOK REPORT FOR MAY
We need artist to send new work for their albums. Anyone can create an album on Facebook with no more than 14 pieces.
